President’s Office
Presidium
The Michigan District has four Vice Presidents representing our four regions. They work closely with the District President.
Circuit Visitors
The Michigan District is divided into four regions and 41 circuits. Each Circuit Visitor serves as ecclesiastical supervisor (representative of the District President) in his circuit. Circuit Visitors meet with pastors for support and encouragement. They also help vacant congregations by setting up pulpit supply, working with call committees, and providing support in times of need.
Call Process
This is the official administrative resource for congregations within the Michigan District (LCMS) navigating the transition of leadership. It provides the procedural framework and spiritual guidance necessary for "calling" (hiring) a new pastor or commissioned church worker.
District Convention
This serves as the official administrative hub for all matters related to the triennial conventions of the Michigan District of The Lutheran Church—Missouri Synod (LCMS).
